In the past few weeks, America's Sun King has sprayed the geopolitical flak a mile high. From Gaza-a-lago to dropping his piledriver on Zelensky.

Send us a textThe Battle of Nagashino is one of the most famous battles in Japanese history. It was the climax of the Sengoku Jidai, the Age of Warring States, a century-long period of civil wars and social upheaval. It represented the culmination of a revolution that had transformed Japanese warfare. And it punctures many myths of the samurai, the warrior-heroes of Japan.This episode also ends a long hiatus for Great Battles in History. For the past couple of years, I've been working on a book. Researching and writing it took up all the time I would have devoted to this podcast. With the book now done, I'm planning to return to a more regular release schedule.If you enjoy this podcast and would like to support it, please consider buying my book. It's called 1709: The Twilight of the Sun King. In 1709, France faced the coldest winter of the past five centuries, famine, financial collapse, and foreign invasion. The Twilight of the Sun King is an expertly researched, engagingly written narrative history of how France survived one of its greatest crises. It explains how Louis XIV, the aging Sun King, and his state passed their greatest test. It presents a total history of an early modern campaign, one that integrates finances, logistics, and diplomacy with military operations. It culminates with an account of Malplaquet, the largest and bloodiest battle of the eighteenth century in Europe. 1709 offers new insights on the development of the French absolute monarchy and the nature of early modern European warfare.Here's a link to my publisher, Rowman and Littlefield and a link to everyone's favourite online bookseller.You can also order it from your local bookstore.

Only God Is Great #RTTBROS #nightlight Only God is Great "For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's." — Romans 14:8 (KJV) In the grand halls of history, few moments are as poignant as the funeral of King Louis XIV of France. Known as "Louis the Great" or the "Sun King," Louis XIV reigned for 72 years, the longest of any monarch of a major country in European history. His reign was marked by the expansion of French influence and the establishment of a centralized state. When Louis XIV passed away in 1715, his funeral was a grand affair, befitting a king who had lived in such splendor. His body lay in a golden coffin, surrounded by the opulence that had characterized his reign. The cathedral was filled with mourners, and the atmosphere was heavy with the weight of his legacy. As the funeral service reached its climax, the Bishop of Meaux, Jean-Baptiste Massillon, stood before the congregation. In a dramatic gesture, he snuffed out the candle that had been burning beside the coffin and declared, "God alone is great." This powerful statement served as a humbling reminder that no matter how grand or influential a person may be, only God holds true greatness. The story of Louis XIV's funeral reminds us of the transient nature of earthly power and glory. Despite his immense influence and the grandeur of his reign, Louis XIV's life, like all human lives, came to an end. The bishop's declaration, "God alone is great," echoes the biblical truth that our lives are ultimately in God's hands. As we reflect on this story, let us remember that our true worth and greatness come not from our achievements or status, but from our relationship with God. Whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord, and it is His greatness that we should seek to honor in our lives. May we live each day with the humility and reverence that acknowledges God's supreme greatness, trusting in His eternal power and love. https://linktr.ee/rttbros Be sure to Like, Share, Follow and subscribe it helps get the word out. https://linktr.ee/rttbros

It is the only and only Louis XIV, the Sun King.Louis, also known as the "God given one", was arguably one of the greatest Kings of France, certainly one of the most remembered. Inheriting the throne at just four years old, he was a Machiavellian puppet master whose legacy is evident in the France of today, long after its citizens disposed of his heirs. He was a fascinating character who lived an incredible life, one of history's longest ruling and most iconic monarchs. Come with us as we step back in time and dive into the life and times of Louis XIV and share fascinating facts about his daily routine, the rules of living at Versailles, his fashion sense, romantic life and more!Follow us: On Twitter On Instagram On Facebook On The Good Life France's website On Paris Chanson's Thanks for listening!

In the late 17th century, during the glorious reign of Louis XIV, the Sun King, France was at its apogee, with royal absolutism at its zenith. But, beneath the gold and glamour of Louis' reign, there lay a terrifying darkness: a prison system into which people could be disappeared without a trace. And at the very heart of this darkness there lurked an excruciating secret…a prisoner, his terrible crime unknown, moved from prison to prison, forbidden to speak, and whose face was encased at all times in a mask of steel. Who was he, if he even existed at all? An English spy? Louis' long-lost father, driven into obscurity? Or, even more threateningly, his twin brother?
